Van Dijk is the missing piece Liverpool have been looking for - Agger

The former Reds defender is a big fan of the Dutch centre-half, with his arrival at Anfield considered to have sparked a Premier League title bid

Virgil van Dijk is “what Liverpool have been missing”, says Daniel Agger, with the Dutch centre-half proving to be the final piece required for a Premier League title challenge.

The Reds needed to break a world transfer record in order to land the Netherlands international.

Jurgen Klopp parted with a £75 million ($99m) fee to lure Van Dijk away from Southampton and make him the costliest defender on the planet.
